Morganna's smile on her face only spread further on seeing the boy's face covered with blood and bruises right now.
"Did you think you would get away this easily for stealing my jewels?" questioned Morganna.
Calhoun, who sat on the ground with one leg stretched while his other leg pulled up, he stared at the woman who had a triumphant look on her face. "You know well that I had nothing to do with it. Nor Theodore. Have you run out of ideas that you have decided to fall so low by stealing your own things and hiding them to frame me?"
Morganna didn't seem affected by Calhoun's words, and she only smiled, "I don't have any idea of what you are speaking right now. Perhaps you have lost your mind that you are pointing your finger at me. Don't forget that you are the one who has been confined and not me. Let me give you some advice. When a person is in your position, you need to grovel on the ground and beg for forgiveness."
Turning to the guards who were standing around, Morganna raised her hand and dismissed them. She didn't need them in here as the boys were not worth looking after.
"It is only a matter of time before my son throws you out of the castle, just like what he did to your mother," when Morganna said this, a chuckle escaped Calhoun's lips. The Queen's eyes narrowed. "Have you lost your mind?"
Calhoun pushed himself up from the ground, and he made his way to stand in front of Morganna with iron bars separating them.
"Maybe," he answered the woman's words and the smile on Morganna's face finally slipped down. His eyes didn't break away from her. "Don't look so happy about what happened today, because the days that are approaching are dark and it will drag you down to dust."
"How dare you try to intimidate and threaten me," Morganna glared at Calhoun. "I will make sure that day never comes, because you won't be alive to see it."
Since the time of evening Calhoun and Theodore had been dragged into the cells. The guards on Morganna's orders had tortured them.
Theodore sat down in the other cell that was next to Calhoun. Even though they were beaten and their skin had turned bloody in pain, he watched Calhoun laugh at Queen Morganna's face. It wasn't like he hadn't gone through such situations before, but this was the royal family and their prison, he could only wonder how Calhoun was planning to get them out of this situation.
Obviously, Morganna wanted to get rid of both of them as soon as she could, but the thing was, would the King really agree to it?
"You are confident that my son won't let you go and will keep you alive, but what is the point if you are going to be alive only between the walls of iron bars," Morganna stepped closer to the cell. Both the woman and Calhoun stood in front of each other. "Let me tell you something as we have time, your mother was a whore, and she spread her legs, taking any man. You want to know a secret, Calhoun," the woman whispered, "I am the one who sent men to break her, making sure she had no other way to live and no help was provided to her."
Calhoun's jaw ticked, and Morganna relished in the boy's defeat.
When Morganna turned around and started to walk away from there, Calhoun said,

"Do you think I don't know about it?"
Morganna stopped walking, and she turned to look at Calhoun. Her proud eyes looked down at him.
"I know you were behind it. I would expect nothing less from you," said Calhoun, and the side of his lips pulled up.
Morganna didn't stay there to listen to what Calhoun had to say as she had other important things to do, and she stepped out of the room and got out of the tall tower. The guards left with Morganna, leaving the tower unattended.
When Morganna left, Lucy, who was hiding behind the walls, stepped forward with her face filled with shock. She couldn't believe what she had just heard, and her hands turned cold. After finding Theodore and Calhoun were locked up in here, she had come here, but she hadn't expected her grandmother to say what she uttered a few moments ago.
Lucy's steps were quiet, but it was enough for Calhoun and Theodore to pick up the sound and saw the young vampiress walk through the entrance of the room. Her eyes widened at the sight of blood spilt and the wounds on both the men.
Calhoun watched Lucy step into the room with a look of shock splashed on her face, "You shouldn't be here," he said.
Lucy nodded her head, "I know. I thought you would be hungry." She had two flasks in her hand, which was filled with blood.
"The Queen will not be happy if she finds you in here," said Calhoun. "But thank you for being thoughtful." He stretched his hand forward, and Lucy quickly handed one of the flasks to him.
She then turned to look at Theodore, who watched her with a small frown on his face, "If someone sees you here, you will be in grave trouble," said Theodore. She knew it, but she wanted to see them.
"I cannot sit quiet without offering my help," replied Lucy. "You brought me blood when I was locked in my room. It is only right that I repay your kindness."
When both of them finished drinking the blood that was in the bottle, Lucy asked Calhoun, "Is it true? That grandmother framed you?" she looked up anxiously.
"What do you think?" Calhoun questioned back. He had heard the sound of her feet even before Morganna had left the room, knowing she had heard every word that was spoken in here. Lucy didn't know what to say, and when she heard some sound outside the room, she quickly ran out of the room as if she hadn't come here.
